Dan Ives, a leading analyst at Wedbush Securities, recently highlighted the substantial enhancements in Apple's anticipated iPhone 15 series. He estimates that these impressive upgrades could attract 250 million iOS users who have not upgraded in the last four years.
The iPhone 15 series is set to debut a new design, increased battery capacity, and improved camera quality, with prices expected to rise by $100 to $200. Ives believes Apple is positioning itself for the future of artificial intelligence (AI), making the iPhone 15 a vital foundation for these innovations.
Notably, Ives points out that the Health app will see significant enhancements, utilizing AI to refine data collection on heart rate, respiration, and sleep patterns. This AI-integrated Health app aims to personalize fitness and diet plans, while also providing improved tracking of various health metrics. By monitoring exercise routines and dietary habits, the app is designed to empower users with comprehensive health management.
Additionally, the report suggests that AI could be harnessed to monitor emotions by analyzing voice data and text messages. Apple may also create a dedicated section in the App Store for AI-driven applications, further embedding artificial intelligence into its ecosystem.
